Mud tubes along walls are also an indication of an infestation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chemical Danger<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Termiticides are tested by manufacturer&#8217;s and evaluated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and pose minimal hazardous effects on humans and pets. For peace of mind, if you have any health conditions or health concerns then it&#8217;s best to check with your medical doctor prior to the home being treated.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allisonpest.com\/termite-control\/termite-services.php\">termite infestations<\/a>, treatment, and extermination, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allisonpest.com\/contact-us.php\">contact<\/a> your NJ termite specialist at Allison Pest Control.
